The supply upgrade was not successful. The cartridges listed in the message can still be used in this printer. Replace the Supply Upgrade cartridge. For more information, see Replace the ink cartridges.
Counterfeit Cartridge Advisory
The installed cartridge is not a new, genuine HP cartridge. Contact the store where this cartridge was purchased. To report suspected fraud, visit HP at www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit. To continue using the cartridge, click Continue.
Use SETUP cartridges
When you first setup the printer, you must install the cartridges that shipped in the box with the printer. These cartridges are labeled SETUP, and they calibrate your printer before the first print job. Failure to install the SETUP cartridges during the initial product setup causes an error. If you installed a set of regular cartridges, remove them and install the SETUP cartridges to complete printer setup. After printer setup is complete, the printer can use regular cartridges.
if you still receive error messages and the printer cannot complete ink system initialization, contact HP support. For more information, see HP support.
